    I think your speed is perfect. There is always a pause and watch again. Thank you for all you share.

    Your most inspiring craft, in my opinion, is your relationship! Please tell us how you two met, and how many anniversaries have you celebrated together? Sending you sunshine from Florida!

    It is fantastic to see you both knitting, should be more guys doing it, Arne don't feel your have to slow down any just because someone said you are a fast knitter. That is great, so keep it up just keep doing as your doing, being yourself. They can rewind the video, and view it again and again!By some of the comments some people either don't watch or don't list to what you're saying which is sad.Love your video's, keep 'em coming, love the outside ones, as the studio.

    Hi, I've just cast off knitting your cowl pattern. I did it using alpaca yarn in pale grey. It's beautiful, thank you for a lovely pattern. I learnt to knit when I was 6 years old! Long ago.

    On any video I have ever watched you will have people that will make comments about speed etc. I am very thankful for anyone posting a video demonstrating how to do something. It is a great gift. There are so many videos out there I would recommend watching multiple videos on a subject to gather different things from each. For me watching different videos I have gone from a confused beginner to someone who is helping others. Keep doing what you are doing Arne and Carlos it is such an inspiration. P.S. I have also gotten a lot of vital info from knitting podcasters who share more than teach.

    Hi Carlos, I am from Buenos Aires, Argentina and really enjoy your videos and Arne´s of course. Thank you very much for your creativity and generosity. You are real artists! I love knitting and it relaxes me a lot.
    Carlos, I was intrigued in wich country of South America you went to school. Would it be Argentina, maybe?
    Best wishes!

    Because of your tutorials I am able to knit Norwegian. It sure makes it easier for me when I am knitting and purling together. I haven't been doing it very long and so I am not so sure that my tension is the best, but I am enjoying when I need to purl so much better. Thank you

    Thank you Arne and Carlos for sharing a part of your life with us. I know how to knit and crochet but love to watch you and be inspired by you. You have inspired me to be more creative in my craft and it has opened a space of peace and love to grow ever bigger in my soul. Thank you from a Norwegian living in the US.❤️✌🏼🐑☃️

    I am so thankful to and for both of you. You are fun, informative, serious, and excellent teachers. Yes, even you No-Patience-Carlos! :-)
    Oh, Carlos, I am shocked no one wanted the sweater you are wearing. The design is STUNNING! I would wear it proudly.
    Arne, it may be harder for you, but keep speaking.

    I made all my grandchildren look-alike dolls from your doll book. I bought it here in Minneapolis, MN, USA. When my grandchildren got older, I handed it down to a younger grandma visiting from Denmark who wanted to make some for HER grandchildren. Now I can't wait to try your PAIRfect socks!

    I just found your channel the other day when I was looking for granny square tutorials and ideas. I loved both the granny square and flower, and plan to watch the mandala one soon. I've been crocheting for 2 years, and you are inspiring me to take up knitting. I love the name of your bird book, Field Guide to Knitted Birds. Right now I am just taking the morning to go through and watch more videos. They are beautifully done - thank you for sharing your passions.

    @TNgardengirl 7 років тому +1

    I recently found you two when looking for an easy sock heel to teach in a beginner sock class. Arne's demo in the Pairfect video was just what I needed. I'm a thrower like Carlos (and will always be), but I'm practicing Norwegian so I can switch back and forth when my hands bother me. I could never get purling Continental until I watched Arne do it. You two are a perfect balance, with Arne doing the demos as Carlos explaining every step and showing alternate ways get the same results. There's so much more I could say, but I will leave it at THANK YOU for these delightful videos.

    Thanks so much Arne and Carlos! I only recently discovered your channel and I've already enjoyed it greatly. Thanks so much for sharing your expertise with us, I'm now giving "picking" instead of "throwing" a go (I'm from Australia, so we mostly learn to knit in the English style) and look forward to more stimulation and enjoyment from your videos and website. Thank you!

    I was thrilled to have stumbled across your videos while searching for knitting techniques. Love your energy, style, videos, your home, and precious dog. I am disappointed to learn that the gorgeous sweaters you both wear are not available in pattern or complete form because they are vintages pieces that you have purchased over time and in different places. I shall have to start shopping second hand stores for vintage sweaters. Maybe one day you will decide to create patterns from the many sweaters you own. Love, love, love your sweater collection.

    Love you guys and congrats on your channel's one year mark! I really enjoy everything you post from knitting to gardening ( now I need one of those x-mas cookie irons! ) Don't apologize Arne, for knitting too fast, I enjoy watching that lovely Norwegian technique. 😁 My father taught me to knit and he was a very fast knitter as well...he would always say, "Erica, If you knit any slower you'll freeze this winter!" I know he was teasing me but at the time it made me furious...because he did such beautiful work and would always finish what he started-- no UFO's ever with dear ol' dad. 😂 Keep up the great work, stay healthy and inspired! 💖

    Bottom line: there are times when it would be great to see a video in slow motion. UA-cam offers this option, but it's not exactly out in plain sight. To adjust playback speed if you're using the Chrome browser, click the Settings icon in the lower-right corner of the playback window, then click the Speed selector. Think this is still the same -- there are videos on UA-cam on how to slow down watching them.

    @kayellwy 7 років тому +1

    I just watched this Q&A video as well as the video for working with the Pairfect yarns. I have purchased a ball of this yarn to make socks for a grandson. I usually knit toe-up, 2 at-a-time socks. After hearing your answer from someone asking if the yarn could be worked from the outside, I wondered if you could knit toe-up socks from the outside or backwards and have the yarn pattern work out correctly. I was thinking of winding off the yarn for one sock and using the left-behind yarn to knit two socks at once. How do you think that would work?
